Genesis 11:1-9 | EV Night | 1/10/2023 | Dave Jensen

If Jesus came to our church
Revelation 3:7-13 | EV Night | 8/10/2023 | Andrew Hayes
What would Jesus think of our church? What does he look for in a church? Revelation 2-3 give us letters from Jesus to seven of his churches, with powerful challenges and deep encouragement. To those who hold fast to his word, no matter the cost, he promises vindication, security, honor, and the reward of his presence forever.
Judges 2:6-19
Judges 2:6-19 | EV Church | 5/05/2013 | Tim Baldwin
Tim Baldwin provides an introduction to Judges. God's people finally get to inhabit the promised land, to fulfil the promises made to Abraham. And what should have been a great experience for God's chosen people, becomes a series of generations who reject God, are rescued by a Judge, then fall away into worse behaviour. As God calls his people to drive out the other nations - it's worth considering if Holy war is ever ok? 1. It was punishment for their wickedness (see Gen 15) 2. God owns all land and was fulfilling His promise (Deut 7:7) 3. To maintain the covenant relationship (Deut 7:6) What about now this side of Jesus? No - it's not ok to use these verses to justify war, we are in Exodus preparing for the new Kingdom Yes - spiritually we are at war, and need to rage Holy war on sin.
